We're inclusive to all. Our organisation is for all people. We want everyone in the world to be part of the Soar journey. If you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go far, go together.

We’re building Soar together with a global community. Our work aims to connect people to each other, to our platform, to their environment, and to the world. When we win, we win together.

innovation

We’re not afraid to think outside the box. Our goals are driven by research and the nucleus is innovation. We see our work as multigenerational, impactful, and outlasting us as individuals.

Our history

From humble beginnings, coding out of a small shed, our team have always been passionate about making geospatial data accessible and making a positive impact in the world. The idea of Soar, an open digital atlas of all the world’s maps and images, was first dreamed up following the success of our Mappt mobile app.

Mappt is a mobile field-mapping application made for mining applications. Seeing the way users were interacting with Mappt and what they wanted from it, led to the development of the Soar platform. Soar was built on the strengths of Mappt: a use-anywhere, agnostic, affordable, and inclusive product.

We evolved this technology, while upholding the same values, to create Soar and make it available to everyone.

“We are building a multi-generational product for the world” - Amir Farhand, CEO and founder of Soar.
